Samsung Odyssey G9 G95SC review - 240Hz QD-OLED for a great price

Yes, a huge 49-inch OLED gaming monitor is actually one of the best value gaming monitors available at the moment. It costs a lot but you get so much for your money.

I've been daily driving this monitor since it came out, while it is nice there have been tons of disadvantages and some that come with fixes. I believe the built in os isn't really useful and is instead a hassle especially when using display port or having multiple connections at once. In order to switch sources, you have to press the home button, wait like 20 seconds for it to load, laggily scrolling down in order to take a while to switch inputs. Going from 2 27 inch 170hz monitors has been awesome, but I have never really used the full real-estate unless I'm doing productivity work but instead go down to a smaller 21 by 9 ratio for gaming. In order to put it to 21 by 9, I had to put in a registry tweak allowing me to switch it to that. Other than that all the normal features of oled have been quite incredible and the hdr and widescreen movie performance is game changing. Thanks for this review it is very great.

I usually do not leave comments but I like how you provide the essential information without explaining every fine detail while being honest on the pros and cons. Keep up the good work man!

I wish you'd do a bit about splitscreen and whether or not the screen supports multiple inputs and can act like two/three monitors and such. Other than that, this was a informative and well thought out review. Soothing voice and tempo makes it a pleasant experience all around.

i subscribed to your channel when you spoke about reliability and read peoples comments. none of the review videos i've seen speak about reliability, specifically reading out community's complaints. highly appreciated.

Just bought one today from Best Buy for $900, had to after my original 2020 G9 screen got smashed, this vid really sold me!

I do have to agree with the others. Really nice review. Espacially, are you focussing on points, I haven´t read anywhere else.

But you do should´ve added the fact, that the monitor is not matt, but glossy. Which I really was locking for on a monitor for a long time!

I really like this monitor. I wish it was bigger! It has few quirks like any other Samsung. No 4k, most of the time it’s 1440p and wish it’s a bit brighter. I have 2 OLEDs tv and it’s much brighter than the odyssey G9.

The "G93SC" seems to be of such high quality, but when I look at the USB-C ports from Samsung, I have to say it sucks, that means USB-C cables don't hold up and sometimes fall off again!

can you re-do the video on which is the best HDD? I love it but it's outdated now

[TheHeee]

It’s the 2023 model, but hasn’t Samsung released a new model in Q1 of 2024?

[DankBlank]

Do you know the measurement from the base to bottom of the monitor when the monitor is at the highest position? 😅

[cade]

The OS stuff is enough to make me stay away. I have original G9 and it doesn’t have that issue.

For those who care about privacy, the g93sc has less bloatware

[neoxaaa]

can I use 4090 rog strix card with this monitor??

4:44 STOP building SPEAKERS into monitors and increase the price and manufacturing complexity and therefore increase the price yet again because of that!! If you buy a $1200 monitor, you will NOT use built-in speakers!! You will have $400 headphones or $3000 sound system along your setup if you are up to buying such expensive monitor!! And why no option for buying a monitor without the stand?? The stand alone (pun not intended) costs a quater of the full monitor price. Garbage!

to stop the flickers, you have to go to nvidia control panel, go to change resolution & use nvidia highest color settings 32 bit & 10bpc.

Samsung makes crappy screen monitors. I've had their TV and I've had their phones. Their screens will fail you in a very short period of time.

This boring monotone video is just a terrible review
